- 1:34a couple live drafts as well in the upcoming weeks, so I hope to
- 1:37see some of you guys in there as well with us. All right,
- 1:40let's get into this four game primetime slate. This slate is being overshadowed by
- 1:49the Big three game Monday Night slate, but we do have content for that
- 1:53as well, and this Sunday night game is the one that will go overlooked
- 1:57on this primetime slate. That game is the Patriots at the Broncos. This
- 2:05is only a thirty three and a half point total and the Broncos are seven
- 2:07point favorites. The only real reason to use this game is because nobody else
- 2:14will, so it's a way to get different on a four gamer. But
- 2:17I do have a hard time seeing me get to either one of these quarterbacks,
- 2:22especially with my single entry lineup. I probably end up xing out both
- 2:27Russ Wilson and Zappi and maybe just use one or two of the pieces around
- 2:32them instead. The top piece for the Patriots is going to be Ezek Yeah,
- 2:38sorry, Ezekiel Elliott. With Remandre out again this week, Zeke should
- 2:44get a workhorse roll, and he's also used in the past game. It's
- 2:47also a great matchup for him so Zeke would be my favorite option, and
- 2:52then other than that, it's going to be Hunter Henry at tight end.
- 2:57He's only thirty four hundred dollars and he had nine targets last week. He
- 3:00has had three touchdowns in the last two games. He even had one called
- 3:04back last week. It could have been four in the last two games,
- 3:07and he is averaging nineteen DraftKings points those last two weeks. He does have
- 3:13that Q tag though, so we got to keep an eye on that.
- 3:15But those are the two Patriots I will be looking at. And then on
- 3:19the other side of the ball, it's just the wide receivers for me.
- 3:22If I am using Russell Wilson, then I'm okay using both Courtland Sutton and
- 3:29Jerry Judy, But without Russ, I plan on limiting it to just one
- 3:34of those wide receivers. Sutton will be the more popular of the two,
- 3:38but Judy did get more targets the last two weeks, so I'm fine with
- 3:42that paydown if I need to go there. And then I just don't care
- 3:46for the cheap plays in this game, though, so aside from those top
- 3:50four plays that I mentioned, it will just be the DSTs that make my
- 3:53player pull from this game, and then the first of the three Christmas games
- 3:59is the race at the Chiefs. The Chiefs are ten and a half point
- 4:03favorites with a twenty five and a half point team total. I expect Mahomes
- 4:09to be lower owned than Hertz and Lamar on this slate, so that does
- 4:14make me like him as a contrarian option. If I am using Mahomes,
- 4:18then I'm locking in at least one of Travis Kelcey or Rashi Rice. Those
- 4:24are the only trustworthy pass catchers on this Chief's team, and the only way
- 4:29I would get to any of these other cheap options would be if Mahomes is
- 4:32my quarterback, and that's what it takes to get up to a Kelsey and
- 4:36or Rice in my lineup as well. But aside from those past catchers,
- 4:42it's gonna be Isaiah Pacheco, who is back this week, and I like
- 4:46him a lot. At sixty four hundred dollars. We can use him with
- 4:49or without Mahomes. And if I'm using him without Mahomes, and I like
- 4:54to pair him with the Chiefs DST and then for the Eagle the next game,
- 5:01I'm sorry, we have a the Raiders. I forgot about them.
- 5:04It's just the main three guys on the Raiders. For me, I won't
- 5:09be using O'Connell on this slate, so I will limit it to one of
- 5:13the wide receivers Devonte Smith or Jacoby Myers. And then Josh Jacobs is back.
- 5:21Well, if he is back this week, then I think he's in
- 5:24play at sixty three hundred dollars. He scored twenty five and a half DraftKings
- 5:29points against this Chiefs defense in Week twelve, so I'm fine going back to
- 5:32him if he plays. And then the last guy that could end up making
- 5:35my playerpool would be Austin Hooper at the minimum twenty five hundred dollars price tag,
- 5:42but I'd only get there if the rookie Mayer ends up sitting this week,
- 5:46But that could be a way to open up a lot of salary for
- 5:47us if we need that twenty five hundred dollars in our lineup. The next
- 5:53game is the widest spread on the slate, with the Eagles being thirteen and
- 5:56a half point home favorites over the Giants, and they have I have the
- 6:00highest team total on the slate at twenty eight. Jalen Hurts is the most
- 6:03expensive quarterback on the slate, and both of his wide receivers are pricey,
- 6:09so I probably limit his stacks to one of aj Brown or Devonte Smith,
- 6:14and if Smith sits, then it just makes it that much easier. And
- 6:16I also like Dallas Goddard in my Hurt stacks as well. And then if
- 6:23I'm not using Hurts at quarterback, then there's a really good chance that DeAndre
- 6:26Swift makes my lineup at running back, and I would most likely pair him
- 6:30with the Eagles dst. If I'm not stacking up Hurts in the offense,
- 6:36and there are only thirty four hundred dollars man on this short slate, you
- 6:39would think that they would be closer to four k or even more. But
- 6:42thirty four hundred dollars against the Giants. I like the Eagles quite a pit
- 6:45actually a defense, and then the Giants are mainly fades for me. But
- 6:50the Eagles defense is just awful against opposing wide receivers, so I would be
- 6:56fine with any one or even two of Rob Slayton or Hyatt. I doubt
- 7:02I get to de Veto on this slate, but if I do, then
- 7:05I would want to lock in two of these guys with him or I guess
- 7:10one of them. And then Darren Waller is in play as well at tight
- 7:14end. He's only forty five hundred dollars. I guess he's probably their best
- 7:16pass catcher if we need to go there, and we could even double up
- 7:19on tight end on this slate too, but I will be exing out Saquon
- 7:25Barkley personally. I just don't see me getting there. There's other payups that
- 7:29I would rather get to instead, So just the pass catchers for me on
- 7:31the Giants, and then the last game is my favorite game. The forty
- 7:36nine ers are five and a half point home favorites and we have a forty
- 7:41seven point total in this game. Lamar was three yards shy of the one
- 7:46hundred yard rushing bonus last week, and he should be looking to rush a
- 7:49lot here as well. This is a big game and it's looking like the
- 7:54two teams that'll get a buy in the playoffs. I like Lamar this week,
- 7:57and his stack pieces are all affordable. We have Zay Flowers and Odell
- 8:03Beckham Junior, who are his favorite wide receivers. I like either of them,
- 8:07or even both of them. If they are paired with Lamar, and
- 8:11then Rashad Bateman also saw a season high six targets last week. He's only
- 8:16thirty three hundred dollars this week, so I think he's somewhat in play as
- 8:18well. And then Isaiah Likely's probably my favorite tight end play on the slate.
- 8:24He's only forty two hundred. I expect him to be a big part
- 8:26of this offense moving forward without Andrews, so I like him a lot as
- 8:31well, and I'm fine with any combination of those guys stacked with Lamar.
- 8:35And if I'm not using Lamar, then I would bump up Gus Edwards at
- 8:39running back. He should get most of the workload after losing Keaton Mitchell last
- 8:43week, but he has very touchdown dependence. We need him to get at
- 8:46least one touchdown for him to make that optimal lineup. And then the best
- 8:52team in the league is the forty nine ers. I expect Purdy and CMC
- 8:56to be the most chalky plays at their positions. I do like them both
- 9:01if I can afford them, but if I'm using Perty at quarterback, then
- 9:05I would want to lock in one of the wide receivers. Deebo Samuel or
- 9:09Brandon Ayuk, and I'd be fine with both Samuel and Ayuk compared with Perdy,
- 9:13but we probably have to cut out CMC in order to do that.
- 9:18And then George Kittle is always the one that goes overlooked. He's in play
- 9:22as well. He should be the lowest forty nine er that we care about
- 9:26anyway, so I think he is in play on this tough tight end slate,
- 9:30and it very well could be a two tight end slate for me.
- 9:33But that is about it for me. My full player pool with notes will
- 9:37be posted over at ship at nation dot com. All sports are included for
- 9:41one low price. You guys can play more and pay less. I'll be
- 9:45back next week with another primetime slate breakdown, but if you guys can hit
